Hi, I am looking for the pin outs and the number of the connector used for I/O on the 48sx. If anyone has any info, I would appreciated it. Thanks alot.

Try making your own with 0.025 square sockets (Berg division of DuPont makes a wide range of 'em). I have been told that some people have made sockets from joystick connectors. Enjoy. BTW, anyone out there in .netland interested in buying an HP42S, including the programming manual? Contact me via e-mail.

Only if you use a few square meters of sand paper :-) (The typical 9-pin (DB-9) is a _bit_ big). What I did was take some gold (when you are debugging an intermittent problem, it's nice to know the connector is not it :-) connectors, put them on the HP48sx pins, put tape around them as to seal their spacing (put one sticky side from below and one from above - with the pins in the middle). Then I used some epoxy to "cast" a little connector from. After a little sandpaper-ing, I had a connector I'm proud of ;-) Take care. >BTW, anyone out there in .netland interested in buying an HP42S, including >the programming manual? Contact me via e-mail. P.S. Nope, but I'm still determined to get my ROMs swapped! Even if it's almost over (swap period). Darn, 2 days left.
